I REALLY like it! Your hair looks great with lots of volume. So many people around me change up their hair color or highlights depending on the season or if they just want a new style! It can get boring having the same style/color for too long.

I have an appointment Friday and I'm going back to the brown color like Rachel McAdams hair. I'm pretty sure I'm the same person I was in October and December. As juvjoy said, it's fun to change. And I liked the brown better.

iwantcurlyhair: I WISH I could open my own salon - I don't have a license Heck I've never been to cosmetology school Believe me, someday I want to go! It was a nice compliment though!

Halfwavyhalfcurly: cuz I felt like it! It has nothing 2 do w/ "identity" - hair color has no affect on that. I already know who I am. It's just fun!

It's like ur saying a "blonde" is one type of person & a "brunette" is another type.

People ARE perceived differently according to their hair color, throughout the years there have been polls about that, I heard about one regarding brunettes and men not long ago as a matter of fact.

I have a pretty open mind when it comes to opinions, but surely this one is rather extreme.

I'll use my psych degree and say, psychologists are just there to listen to you so you can work your own problems out. They certainly don't make judgements on hair color. I don't think most people give a hairy rats behind.
Some people like change and she's doesn't have all of our hair to play with so she plays with her own. Who cares, it looks good. I don't care why she colors it off and on. It either looks good or it doesn't.

I'm so tired of 9 out of 10 doctors agree argument. It's argument by authority and it's not anymore valid than say circular arguments and they just make my teeth hurt.

Hmmmm....I personally started changing my hair color waaaay back when, when I was in highschool, and did it frequently 'cause it was fun! I never associated it with my inner identity -it just made me feel good to be able to change it when I was ready to change it. I suppose it makes a statement about me that I like different hair colors , and I can't help it if people perceive me differently because of my outward appearance -which has always been quite hippie-ish anyway,but I'm well-educated, hold down a professional job and have 2 young children and a good marriage (and I'm older but have long curly hair that I wear down (against the rules ), and it's auburn right now to boot! )
